J.R. Smith finally admitted what we all already knew, he didn’t know what the score was at the end of Game 1. The Cavs guard says he wasn’t sure of anything.
From ESPN:
“After thinking about it a lot after the last 24 hours and however long it’s been since the game was over, I can’t say I was sure of anything at that point,” Smith said.
Smith was asked if he remembered telling an irate LeBron James, “I thought we were ahead,” after the clock expired, as it appeared he said in a camera angle captured by the ABC broadcast of the game.
“I might have said that,” Smith said. “I’m not for sure, but I might have.”
Smith will need to be in a good frame of mind for Game 2. The Cavs know they need J.R. confident and ready to go.
